While Tschipey Achtu Lodge #(95) has had a Northeast Region Chief, they now have their first National Chief, Forrest Gertin.

They have issued 3 flap sharing a common design with different border colors. The red border is pictured below.

“We have therefore to resolve to conquer or die: Our won Country’s Honor, all call upon us for vigorous and manly exertion, and if we now shamefully fail, we shall become infamous to the whole world. Let us therefore rely upon the goodness of the Cause, and the aid of the supreme Being, in whose hands Victory is, to animate and encourage us to great and noble Actions.” –George Washington, General Orders, 1776

In honor of the Seneca Waterways Council Historical Society TOR, here is a post from eight years ago.

Rob Cunningham shares another interesting find from Ty-Ohni Lodge #95. The question becomes is it an official issue? If so, it would likely be listed as the N0.5.

As Rob tells it…

2 more interesting items were donated to the council historical society- one more 1952 NOAC adviser neckerchief (we thought only 3 existed but now a fourth has surfaced) and another one of the red and white neckerchiefs with the crude Ty-Ohni embroidery which we previously had thought was a one-of-a-kind item. To date it is the earliest Neckerchief with “Ty-Ohni” on it aside from issues with patches. Each time we acquired one of these neckerchiefs they came together so they are likely both from the same time period.

Ty-Ohni Lodge #95 N0.5?

Anyone have more information on this neckerchief or one for trade or sale?

“In the next place, the state governments are, by the very theory of the constitution, essential constituent parts of the general government. They can exist without the latter, but the latter cannot exist without them.” –Joseph Story Commentaries on the Constitution, 1833

I’ll be there with a couple of tables of New York OA, if you are please stop by and say hello.

“I know no safe depository of the ultimate powers of the society but the people themselves; and if we think them not enlightened enough to exercise their control with a wholesome discretion, the remedy is not to take it from them, but to inform their discretion by education. This is the true corrective of abuses of constitutional power.” –Thomas Jefferson, letter to William Charles Jarvis, 1820

“[T]he more public provisions were made for the poor, the less they provided for themselves, and of course became poorer … [taking] away from before their eyes the greatest of all inducements to industry, frugality, and sobriety, by giving them a dependence of somewhat else than a careful accumulation during youth and health for support in age and sickness.” –Benjamin Franklin, On the Price of Corn, and Management of the Poor

Mike Knittel shares the image and the following information. Each contingent member was given several of the red bordered neckerchiefs to trade, however there was a gold bordered version which was given one per contingent member to wear at the event.

I realized I never posted a picture of the Tschipey Achtu Lodge #(95) Silver Mylar version of the 2014 NER Chief flap issued for Kyle Piper. There were two flaps issued to celebrate the 2014 Northeast Region Chief, Kyle Piper who comes from their lodge.

The first variety has a silver Mylar border and is being given out by Kyle as a friendship gift. This flap was available first and will be designated the F2. I understand that there are both TL and TR versions available. The Silver Mylar version is the one used as a Chief’s Gift.

“We have heard of the impious doctrine in the Old World, that the people were made for kings, not kings for the people. Is the same doctrine to be revived in the New, in another shape…? –James Madison (1788)
